The issue of Merit's position on the creation of an independent organization
has come up, so allow me to state it directly. Merit was not consulted, this
was a decision made by community leaders and presented to Merit. We at Merit
do not think it is a good idea. We have always tried to support and act in
accordance with the will of the community. Therefore, we will support this
transition to the best of our ability.
Sincerely,
Don
